    I guess I'm weird. I almost always unpack as soon as I get home. Usually it only takes 20-30 min when I travel light...Then I shower, food, sleep!

    edit: I do agree, though, it sucks going back to civilization.

    Just thought I'd mention I'm taking a Wilderness First Responder course next week! :woot: I suppose that's camping related. I'm so excited, I can't wait! Course materials are pretty much everything needed on a backpacking trip.

    So in one of my recent orders from Ranger Joe's military surplus, I decided to try this out:

    http://www.rangerjoes.com/Hammock-Mini-P6143.aspx

    and it actually works really well! Now granted i'm only 160lbs, but it seams to hold me plus sleeping bag just fine

    It can be used for that. It's also for camping/expedition guides, my reason for taking it.

    I have heard they are wonderful. They will definitely be nice to replace those heavy ass steel ones that came with my new tent.
